Transmission Update

Hello All form Brisbane Australia, hope you are all well and had great Christmas holidays, I finally got my car back from auto repairs two weeks before Christmas, Drives really well, Apparently one of the major circlips had broken in the front pump assembly that holds everything in place and there was too much movement inside and i lost all of the forward gears, I purchased parts from fatsco and now i'm back on the road, Happy Days, Piperman 60.

Great news! Are there other classic Olds in your region? I'll guess you have the only '60.

Ive seen one other 58 down in South Australia, When i registered the car they asked me if i was sure it wasn"t a 57? when i said no , they said Oh okay we will have to start up a new database in my state of Queensland for 58s, so i guess , yes pretty rare down under!! Cheers , stay safe and happy driving!!
